Watch: Self-Watering Pot Reservoirs

These Self-Watering Pot Reservoirs convert your favorite pots into self-watering planters, keeping your plants from drying out and reducing the time you spend watering. Just place this self-contained adjustable reservoir in the bottom of your pot, insert the refill tube and cover with soil. The One-Gallon Conversion Kit holds four quarts and fits pots between 16" and 20" in diameter at the rim. The smaller One-Quart Conversion Kit holds one quart and fits pots up to 10-14" top diameter. Simply fill the reservoir with water through the convenient Fill Tube. The soil will be moistened through evaporative action from the reservoir below. May be used with a liquid or a water-soluble fertilizer. A vacation watering solution!

I bought these conversion kits a year ago and it makes watering my plants a breeze. I received one of those gift planters with 6 different house plants in the same pot. I divided them into 6 pots, each with one of these kits. The directions indicate using a soilless mix, which I highly recommend because I needed to find bigger pots to accommodate both the plant and the soil (the soil itself is practically weightless). I have used this mix for years, before it became popular, and it works great. You can buy it premixed or make your own (just google it). It's important to keep watering plants as normal until the roots make their way to the bottom. Most of my plants reached down fairly quickly after adjusting to the repotting, a couple of months maybe, while one of them has been planted for about 7 months and has still not figured it out. What has been absolutely fascinating is that one plant likes a lot of water and I have found that the soil is ALWAYS wet. Others like to be a little dryer, and the soil stays relatively dry. I worried about this one plant being wet all the time, but it's growing like crazy and the leaves are huge and colorful. I'm wondering if a regular planting soil would work in the same way - not going to try it. I've read some of the negative reviews and have some recommendations. The directions are easy to follow, but you have to read them CAREFULLY and follow them exactly. As far as the corks at the bottom of the water level indicator, if they don't work just stick a piece of styrofoam on the end. It DOES take time for the roots to find their way down, so these work best for houseplants. I would also think that starting with a young plant with not a big root system would work better.

Great product! Use it at our lake house.We're only there on weekends,but I still wanted some potted flowers. I water once a week and don't have to worry about my plants drying out. I deducted a star because they don't come with assembly instructions.

I bought these to use in my potted tomato and pepper plants. Even when they have water in them, the plant looks terrible, still needs top watering. The roots of the plants do not seem to be able to get water from the reservoir as informed they will. Will not use again. They are also very flimsy. After filling the tube and trying to get the cap to stay closed, if you put any push on the cap to close, it pops through the bottom section.

I am very disappointed in this product. They are a complete waste of money. I still need to water my pot'sdaily or twice a day. The instructions were not detailed enough for success. The cork on the stick gets stuckin the container so, it is impossible to tell if there is enough water in the reservoir. If the reservoir was and oris full, the design is not comdusive for it's purpus.

The well appears to hold water for three or four days, probably because it dispenses the water belowthe plants and there isn't the evaporation that you get from overhead watering. Plus the watering iscoming from a deeper level.
